62 CONFESSIONS OF THE EVOLUTIONISTS
Because Darwinists, as with all their claims about the origin of life, have
nothing they can possibly say on that subject, either.
Even if we assume that this imaginary RNA, the Darwinists are re-
ferring to, has been formed somehow by coincidence, then with what
awareness could this RNA, consisting of just one nucleotide chain, have
decided to copy itself? And with what mechanism did it succeed in doing
so? Where did it find the nucleotides it would need during the replication
process?
Even if we assume that, no matter how impossible, all these things
actually happened, they are still not enough to form a single protein mol-
ecule. Because RNA is merely data regarding protein structure. The amino
acids which constitute the building structure of the proteins, are the raw
materials. Yet there is no mechanism here for producing proteins. To say
that the existence of RNA is enough for the production of protein is no
less ridiculous than saying that throwing the blueprint for a car onto the
thousands of its components is enough for that car to eventually assem-
ble itself- spontaneously.
There are no factories or workers around to let production take place.
Even Jacques Monod, the Nobel Prize-winning French zoologist
and fanatical adherent of evolution, states that it is impossible to re-
duce protein manufacture solely to the information contained in nucle-
ic acid:
The code is meaningless unless translated. The modern cell's translating
machinery consists of at least fifty macromolecular components, which
are themselves coded in DNA: the code cannot be translated otherwise
than by products of translation themselves. It is the modern expression of
omne vivum ex ovo [Latin for "All that lives arises from an egg"]. When
and how did this circle become closed? It is exceedingly difficult to imag-
ine. 149

RNA world are as follows.
